Hi Chris,

Here's the details for your custom Distillate bass:

top: Quilted Maple
body: Maple
neck: 7-piece Maple and Purpleheart
scale: 34" long
fingerboard: Ebony
inlays: Pearloid (plastic) ovals
pickups: AXY
controls: volume, filter, Q-switch, bass cut/flat/boost, treble cut/flat/boost, pickup selector switch, mono output
finish: Caribbean Blue burst with clear centers
originally made for: Quigley Music, MO
birthday: Not recorded, but likely in October 1990

It seems that a certain set up person failed to record the birthday around this time. Not sure why, but I have to guess the birthday based on the finish records, and this bass came out of finish on September 20, 1990. Also, since this was a special order, the original owner's warranty card is listed the purchase date as October 6, 1990.
The original owner was located in Missouri.
